A lot of people say Swedish rapper Yung Lean is carried by his two producers, Yung Gud & Yung Sherman, and I am one of those people. There is something to be said for their ability to capture emotion & colour with trap music (ie melancholy & pastels). The washed-up, faded aesthetic, american/japanese pop-culture references and 90s/2000s throwbacks are also oddly appealing, and have garnered them quite the following. As trio Sad Boys they even have their own board on reddit.
You can find a wider selection of their music on Youtube than Soundcloud. I think this has something to do with how much their aesthetic plays into their popularity.
Yung Gud is really nice to drive around at night to. And for something a little different:
If you like, it’s worth your time to check out neighboring Stockholm rap/trap collective Gravity Boys/Shield Gang, of which Yung Sherman is also a member.
